Project Zomboid - S2E1 - Fran's Big Break

Originally streamed February 24th, 2024.
A bit of a longer stream this time. We cover the first week of Fran's post-apocalyptic life, and get back into the swing of things.
This series is an informal attempt to chronicle my experiences playing Project Zomboid on Apocalypse Difficulty with a bunch of random mods. I've put over two-hundred hours into this game over the last ten years, but never made the jump from Scavenger to Apocalyptic difficulty. And I'll eventually succeed, whether it's with my second character or with my hundredth.

Zombies faking their death is as mechanic that exists in the game. Though base game only uses it for "evens" (primarily crashed car events the zombie that initially looks dead will reanimate as you approach).
But enabling a chance of that "fake dead" state for zombies you "kill" is a sandbox option. Though the actual chance is pretty low. But there is a mod that allows you to confic those fake dead all the way to having every zombie you kill to reanimate like 6 hours hater unless you dispose of the bodies.
